LADC - Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor - Multiple Levels of Care

Join NorthStar Regional and experience a better way to document! Our AI-supported tools help counselors streamline clinical notes, reduce administrative time, and allow you to focus more on what matters most—your clients. Spend less time on paperwork and more time making a difference. The LADC provides comprehensive substance use disorder treatment within NorthStar Regionals co-occurring treatment program, including individual and group counseling, assessment, treatment planning, crisis support, and continuing-care planning. The position works alongside mental health, medical, nursing, and recovery professionals to address the interconnected substance use, mental health, and behavioral needs that influence each client's treatment and long-term recovery.

Why NorthStar Regional

At NorthStar Regional, clinicians are part of a treatment environment built around individualized care, clinical collaboration, and a full continuum of behavioral health services. Our programs are designed to meet clients where they are and provide the structure, expertise, and support needed to help them move forward in recovery. Clinicians have the opportunity to work alongside professionals across substance use disorder treatment, mental health, medical care, nursing, and recovery services—bringing multiple perspectives together to support the needs of each client. For an LADC with sound clinical judgment, a commitment to client-centered care, and a passion for helping individuals build lasting recovery, NorthStar Regional provides an environment where your work can make a meaningful difference.

Why Riverwood

Located on 32 acres along the Mississippi River in Otsego, the campus was designed to create an environment where treatment, recovery, wellness, and connection can happen in one place. Riverwood provides men's co-occurring residential treatment and intensive outpatient treatment with lodging, giving LADCs the opportunity to work with clients at different stages of recovery and be part of their progress throughout the treatment experience. The campus itself is an extension of that treatment environment. Riverwood includes an indoor fitness facility, walking trails, meditation areas, outdoor recreation, courtyards and gathering spaces, and direct access to the Mississippi River.

For our clinical team, that means more opportunities to engage clients beyond the counseling office and to be part of a treatment community built around stability, connection, personal growth, and long-term recovery.

• Continually evaluate progress and emerging clinical needs, adapting therapeutic interventions to support meaningful progress toward treatment goals.
• Support clients in developing effective coping strategies, strengthening recovery supports, and building the skills necessary for long-term stability and recovery.

Group Therapy

• Facilitate client-centered therapeutic and psychoeducational groups addressing substance use disorders, co-occurring mental health needs, recovery, and behavior change.
• Create a clinically focused group environment that promotes participation, self-reflection, peer connection, accountability, and development of practical recovery skills.
• Utilize evidence-based interventions to help clients recognize patterns of substance use, identify relapse risks and triggers, strengthen coping strategies, and develop skills that support continued recovery.
• Adapt group content and interventions based on client needs, treatment goals, clinical presentation, and stages of change.

Crisis Intervention & Clinical Support

• Assess and respond to acute emotional, behavioral, and substance use-related concerns, providing crisis intervention, de-escalation, and clinical support within the LADC scope of practice.

• Support clients through periods of increased vulnerability by reinforcing coping strategies, recovery skills, treatment engagement, and available supports.
